A critical choice for subsidy: DCR vs Non-DCR Panels

Making the right choice ensures you qualify for financial incentivaaes without compromise.

DCR Panels (Domestic Content Requirement)

  • Panels manufactured in India and approved by MNRE.
  • Mandatory for homeowners seeking government subsidies on residential rooftop systems.

Non-DCR Panels (Premium Imports)

  • High-quality imported panels for superior performance.
  • Note: Cannot be used for projects where a government subsidy is intended.

Find your perfect inverter

The inverter is the brain of your solar system.
Picking the right one is critical for maximizing energy production.

Partial Shading?

Partial Shading?

For panel-level optimization:
Microinverters or string inverters with power optimizers ensure that shadow on one panel does not reduce the output of the entire system.

Full, Unobstructed Sun

Full, Unobstructed Sun

For maximum efficiency:
Choose a high-efficiency string inverter. Reliable, proven, and cost-effective, delivering excellent performance for rooftops with all-day sun.

The right inverter ensures your system performs reliably and efficiently, no matter your rooftop conditions.
